About: Adurgari

An Entity of Type: language, from Named Graph: http://dbpedia.org, within Data Space: dbpedia.org

Ādurgari is a secret language of the nomadic Shaikh Mohammadi group of peddlers of east Afghanistan, used especially in the presence of outsiders. It is taught to children starting at the age of six or seven; all adults speak it in addition to their native Dari. The name is apparently derived from a word referring to their activity of peddling (ādur), and it has tentatively been suggested this might indicate a possible connection with the Harduri people of Uzbekistan.
